Actually the newbies who believe his stupid crap fullfill the other side of the trade and pay the bills, just like he does. Oh wait... forgot he is mouth and no action.

Amen.

Thx Chauncey :) :) !!

Any of you guys who trade futures using Tradestation have any idea whether or not you can log into your same account from two different places at the same time? ~Cx

Maybe you guys can throw the big downfalls of each company?? ~Cx

Thanks guys I appreciate the input. Anyone else have thoughts? It seems like Noble Trading and Tradestation are doing pretty well too. Let me know!

Briefly off-topic, though I'm researching it myself, can anyone give me input as to what you feel the best brokerage/platform choice(s) is for index futures trading? Research is good...but so is personal experience. Thanks! ~Cx

Hey! Looking to open an ES account pretty soon. Anyone who has been trading index futures for some time that can give me some good information as to which companies are the best and why would be awesome! I am researching it myself obviously but who better to ask then the guys that have been...

Quick question out of curiousity Anekdote. Why not just trade the etf SPY instead of trading the ES? Any other reasons other than futures accounts require less money?

Good stuff! I have been interactive with the markets for some time now, but have little actual trading experience. I do consider myself ahead though in that I have allready chosen to bypass the excess and choose to trade only what I see and what the chart tells me to do. That said, I only...

Hey, thanks for the detailed reply. I am seriously considering opening a futures account for the reasons you've stated as well as others. I did research the comparisons of trading futures to equities like you said and found that they both have their pros and cons. In any case, like I said in...

Hey guys! I just wanted to start out by saying to Anekdote that this journal you've started is fantastic! This is what trading is all about. The conclusions you have come to and this system you have been developing falls right into the same things that I have determined: price action will...
